A public agency may adopt procedures designed to safeguard public records and minimize disruption of public business and may supply a form for requesting records as a means of facilitating the process. However, the agency may not require that a written request for an open public record be made in a certain form prior to granting access to or copies of such records. However, if the requested record's use is limited pursuant to K.S.A. 21-3914 or K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 45-221, a public agency may also require a notarized statement attesting to the matters set forth in K.S.A. 45-220(c)(1) or (2).

Book excerpt: Simply stated, the public purpose doctrine permits the spending of public funds only for public purposes. A benefit to specific individuals does not necessarily deprive the expenditure of its public character if the benefit is incidental to the primary purpose of promoting the public welfare. In our opinion, the cost-share program that provides public monies to assist landowners in plugging their abandoned wells serves the public welfare. The program was implemented in response to the federal water pollution control act (commonly referred to as the clean water act) to expeditiously restore and maintain the biological integrity of the nation's waters.

K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 25-3601, as amended by L. 1992, ch. 194, section 2, establishes in part the requirements for such petition. The amendment adopted in L. 1992, ch. 194, section 2 is merely procedural in nature, and therefore may be applied retrospectively to petitions being circulated prior to April 30, 1992, the effective date of the amendment. A petition drafted on March 31, 1992, should, prior to its circulation, be submitted to the county attorney for an opinion regarding the legality of the form of the question unless such retrospective application of the requirement results in a manifest injustice.

App. 2d 303 (1992), it is our opinion that K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 22-3428(3), as amended, and K.S.A. 1991 Supp. 22-3428a(3), which are used to determine the need for continued commitment of insanity acquittees, violate the due process and equal protection clauses of the 14th amendment by not placing the burden of proof upon the state to show by clear and convincing evidence both the committed person's continued insanity and dangerousness. However, rather than striking the statutes down, the Court of Appeals engrafted the essential requirements onto the statutes.

Because Tuesday, April 6, 1993, falls within that period of time subject to the moratorium, no election regarding a change in the method of election or voting plan for members of a board of education may be conducted on April 6, 1992.
